OUR
HISTORY:

It all started in 1910 when George Degen opened
"The Degen Music Store", in the "Calea Victoriei"
(Victory Street) of Bucarest, Romania, which later on started
to build pianos and other musical instruments.

By
1937 George's son, Alfred Degen,
begun helping him in the management of the store, learning the
secrets of the maintenance of pianos, which he perfected through
practice and study long after he and his family left Romania due
to the effects of the World War, moving to what later would become
the State of Israel.

There, Alfred carried on with the family trade, which he would
later pass on to his son, Elian, who was born in Haifa in 1952.

In
1958, the Degen Family left Israel and went to Venezuela.

Upon his arrival, Alfred started working for the best Piano Shops
as Musica y Arte, Musikalia, Almacen Americano and many others,
until beginning of the 1960´s when he established his own
shop, and was appointed to care for the instruments of places
like The National Theater, The Municipal Theater, The Caracas
Athenaeum and the best Venezuelan and International Orchestras
performing in the Country.

Elian Degen, his son, not only inherited
the profession from him, but also continued piano tuning and repair
studies at the London College of Furniture; coming back to Venezuela
in the beginning of 1970´s to follow up his father´s
work with the same success.

In 1983 in Caracas opens up what is considered as one of the most
modern Theaters in Latinamerica: The "Complejo Cultural Teresa
Carreño". For this opening, Venezuela invited many
of the most famous Orchestras and performers around the world
and Elian Degen was appointed to service and care for the pianos
during this event, which is still considered by him as the most
outstanding part of his carrer.
